On the physical (im)possibility of lightsabers

Francois Fillion-Gourdeau, Jean-Sebastien Gagnon

In this paper, we use a science fiction theme (i.e. the iconic lightsaber from the Star Wars universe) as a pedagogical tool to introduce aspects of nonlinear electrodynamics due t…

Selection and control of pathways by using externally adjustable noise on a stochastic cubic autocatalytic chemical system

Jean-Sebastien Gagnon, David Hochberg, Juan Perez-Mercader

We investigate the effect of noisy feed rates on the behavior of a cubic autocatalytic chemical reaction model. By combining the renormalization group and stoichiometric network an…

Nearby Clumpy, Gas Rich, Star Forming Galaxies: Local Analogs of High Redshift Clumpy Galaxies

C. A. Garland, D. J. Pisano, M. -M. Mac Low +3

Luminous compact blue galaxies (LCBGs) have enhanced star formation rates and compact morphologies. We combine Sloan Digital Sky Survey data with HI data of 29 LCBGs at redshift z~…

3D Spectroscopy of Local Luminous Compact Blue Galaxies: Kinematic Maps of a Sample of 22 Objects

J. Pérez-Gallego, R. Guzmán, A. Castillo-Morales +6

We use three dimensional optical spectroscopy observations of a sample of 22 local Luminous Compact Blue Galaxies (LCBGs) to create kinematic maps. By means of these, we classify t…

The Evolution of Luminous Compact Blue Galaxies: Disks or Spheroids?

D. J. Pisano, K. Rabidoux, C. A. Garland +3

Luminous compact blue galaxies (LCBGs) are a diverse class of galaxies characterized by high luminosity, blue color, and high surface brightness that sit at the critical juncture o…

Warm Molecular Hydrogen Emission in Normal Edge-On Galaxies NGC 4565 and NGC 5907

Seppo Laine, Philip N. Appleton, Stephen T. Gottesman +2

We have observed warm molecular hydrogen in two nearby edge-on disk galaxies, NGC 4565 and NGC 5907, using the Spitzer high-resolution infrared spectrograph. The 0-0 S(0) 28.2 micr…
